Nicolas: Pedro followed the triage how-to's and documentation, which was set out ages and ages ago. (I've not re-read them in a while. If I need to, please put an email out on the bugsquad list.) I myself have closed bugs because I've: 1) Asked a question, which has not been answered. and 2) Waited 30 days.
We do it, to 1) try and poke someone in giving us relevant information (there's nothing quite like "status = New > Invalid" in an email to get someone moving!), and 2) to keep our bug lists clear of those bugs on which we are NOT actively working on. (I, when I'm triaging, tend to open a FF tab for each bug which is still New/Incomplete.) Personally, I'd have probably searched for an upstream report, and if I hadn't found one, submitted one myself, or tagged the bug as needing to go upstream, rather than closing it, but Pedro followed the triager's sequence. (And I will defend his actions here to the hilt, as I have closed bugs in this manner myself, using the exact same template response that Pedro used.) -- No region in Localization Preferences https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/173374 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
